[Review] Universal Windshield Washer Sprayer | OE vs Aftermarket
Difficulty: EASY
What's up car enthusiasts! If you haven't seen our last episode, check it out!
In this weeks episode I decided to go against my will and try a simple universal washer sprayer install on the Doozie. These are the Pilot Universal Windshield Washer Sprayers, I bought them from a local Pepboys and tossed them on. I'm typically not too fond of universal aftermarket parts, but I thought $5 was worth a shot. And to my disbelief, it worked out way too well! Maybe I should open my mind a bit more 🤣 We'll see how long they last...
P.S. I strongly apologize for the popping and cracking sounds from my hands crossing the mic...it kills me to hear it. I vow to never hold my phone by hand anymore, there I said it. Well, typed it. You get my point...I'm not even sure how many people read the description.

Thanks to you, I went and bought a pair at Pepboys not $5 buck but $18 but hey, IT WORKED OUT SUPER GOOD. Approved for 2002 Pathfinder. Tip: I used a 17mm socket to get them tight. Was kinda hard to reach with the fingers.

Oh sweet! I'm glad it helped 😁👍 thanks for watching!
my sprayers on my rodeo look like an old man trying to pee, seems they always get clogged somehow, wonder if something like this would fix it

The jets commonly get clogged with hard water. The minerals tend to build at the tip. Try using purified/distilled water

@@GridLineGo Ive only been using washer fluid in it. Ive blown air through it a few times and cleaned out dirt
I'm going to remove my OEs and try to clean them up. I think the previous owner of the Rodeo put dish soap and water in the reservoir. I drained it and it was all bubbly. If not, I see these on amazon for $18. Edit: I see you got them for $5. Where?

I got them at a local Pepboys 👍
Some parts that are super easy, cheap or universal are not too bad sometimes. I like them as my factory ones are doing the same as yours.

I think I'll be opening up a bit more with universal parts 😁
Many of the original nozzles that come with vehicles today are very cheaply-made, and they can become extremely brittle after a few years. The slightest amount of pressure to remove my nozzles cracked them.

Yeah they can! Thankfully these have held up nicely for the past 20 years 😂 I'm just a fan of the jet-like spray pattern. I prefer the 'fan' type
Wow, I thought it was just my Rodeo with spray nozzle issues but I guess not. I ordered from Ebay nozzles that were supposed to fit but the block was the wrong size to fit through the hole in the hood. Thanks for posting.

Probably would have helped a ton if the engine was running also. I could tell everything was slow and weak.
